My first phone review, others will follow this format. I go as in-depth as possible covering as many aspects of the device as possible. Please feel free to drop me a comment if you think I've missed anything or should incorporate into my next review.

It overclocks fairly well, I guess you could have added that part as well, :p

I run mine at 1100Mhz, :)

I wanted to keep away from the Overclocking aspect as that's an extreme power-user detail and not all of them from what i've seen overclock that well. I'm curious... running it at 1100MHz... what has that done to your battery life? I feel like mine already sucks. :thumbdown:

Yeah I know that not many users might be interested in overclocking a phone, as for battery life I think it has infact got better because the kernel I am using has a lower idle volt and clocks than the default, hence when not in use its saving more energy.
Also yes battery life in general is very poor for N900 but that is only if you are connected to Internet(I know it is from some perspective an internet tablet, sort of). But I keep it disabled till the time I am not using internet, and I am getting almost 2 days now up from a meager 20 hours that I was getting earlier.
